Monster Depression
My mind is exploding and hurts
There is nowhere to go this time
Weeping would only make it worse
Screaming makes it come on stronger
I hate when this happens it will not stop
Depression settles like a dark winged thing
Go stay stop jump, don't know which way to turn
Turn the music up louder and louder; blasting
Block it make it go away stay away leave
Get in the music and drown in the tempo
Hide in verse and forget it's teeth digging in
It lurks in the shadowy tunnels of my brain
Creeping out to find the spongy places
Those places that are unprotected
Ones that are sore and abused
Build walls brick upon brick try to hide
It knows! And it comes! And it lays dormant
Until the next time and I am safe again
Then my mind unclutters and I am serene
It slyly makes its way back in and begins anew
Tormenting me with it's bite when I least expect it
Damn it is coming again wave after wave
Like soldiers on pararde trampling my mind
Causing the pain and depression to descend
Someone anyone make it stop
Please help me before it takes me away
I may not come back… if it comes again
It wants to keep me in it's cold embrace
It wants to kill me
It just wants
